help!!! plant wilting, is it worth trying to save her?

[urlgrey]

Peace, left my plant for 3 days in my bathroom with a small fan on while i was away, she was looking good, nice white pistils , leaves spread out, and once i came back she was all wilted , and 90% of the pistils were brown? i transplanted her last nite into fresh mg potting soil, i was using mg moisture control before. Any ideas, should i just let her be for a few days? Any info would be greatly appreciated, its my first time and i thought i was doing pretty good :wtf:

I would try to save her. When's the last time your plants had water? I've heard horrible things about that moisture control soil. Maybe it sucked all the water right outta the soil and right outta the plant.

Or they might be fert burned from that horrible soil. Even the regular MG potting soil has ferts in it and you really want to stop fertilizing your plant for the last several weeks of flowering otherwise your buds taste like fertilizer, so I wouldn't repot into a fresh pre-fertilized soil, that's pretty much the same as adding more fertilizer to what you already have.

Take a leaf off and taste it. Does it taste very bitter with like a chemical burn sort of aftertaste that's really unpleasant? If so I would definitely not chop it yet or else all your smoke is gonna taste the same way. You need to repot it again into soil that doesn't have fertilizer or moisture control in it.

Listen to the man above. Also when was the last time you flushed her?

i don't know why moisture control soil would suck the moisture from the plant. he's obviously been using it fine until now. the soil is designed to hold 33% more water to help over and under watering.

the nutes that come in the MG soil are minimal. (0.21 - 0.07 - 0.14) i don't think that nute burn is a problem . it would have manifested well before he left the plant. it just doesn't happen over night unless you doused your lady in nutes. the tips will start to show burn, curl etc. not to mention the nutes in MG soils are time released. possibly they would burn seedlings (although i use it just fine). it's all about learning your products and how to use them to your advantage.

she also doesn't look like she's anywhere close to two weeks from being done. if she is, might want to think about upgrading the setup.

on another note, the first step when giving advice for plant problems is to fill out the troubleshooting form. without ALL the info we are shooting a shotgun in the dark trying to figure out your problems. it's also to help give us to diagnose the problem as fast and accurately as possible. asking a question here and a few more there is a waste of time and possibly time that could have been used to save someones meds.
